Professional Development Guides

Purpose

Used with the online Afterschool Training Toolkit, these guides give program directors and site coordinators the resources they need to lead professional development activities that will teach afterschool staff how to build fun, innovative, and academically enriching activities that engage students, extend their knowledge in new ways, and support academic achievement.

Program directors, site coordinators, and others who might lead afterschool staff development can use these guides to facilitate professional development sessions for afterschool instructors.

How It Works

Using these guides, site coordinators and program directors can lead professional development sessions in which staff

  • learn about promising practices for academic enrichment,
  • participate in professional development activities,
  • discuss vignettes illustrating promising practices in afterschool programs, and
  • watch video clips of high-quality afterschool academic enrichment.

Available Titles

  • Technology in Afterschool: A Guide to Using the Afterschool Training Toolkit for Professional Development
  • Arts in Afterschool: A Guide to Using the Afterschool Training Toolkit for Professional Development
